Definitions
- This invention relates to an optical head for recording data on and reproducing data from an optical recording medium.
- the diameter of the pits should be formed less than about 1.0 ⁇ m across and the track pitch should be 1.0 to 2.0 ⁇ m according to increases in density.
- Light is used to form the pits recording the data and to detect the presence and absence of the pits for reproduction.
- the optical head used for recording and reproducing should have excellent tracking and focusing control functions.
- the optical head In practice, when a 5 V power source used, for example, the optical head must have a drive sensitivity such that the optical head acceleration of about 36 m/s 2 in both tracking and focusing directions can be obtained with a low power consumption of 1/3 watt.
- ordinary variable coil or variable magnet systems In order to produce this kind of function, ordinary variable coil or variable magnet systems have been considered for the optical head drive system.
- variable coil system There is a tendency to use the variable coil system based on prior art high acceleration one-dimensional drive system, such as the voice coils of speakers, in recent years.
- variable coil systems it is necessary to attach a lead wire to the coil for supplying power from the stationary section, resulting in deterioration of the optical head's vibration characteristics under the influence of the lead wire and making precise positioning of the head impossible.
- the terminal board required for attaching the lead wire increases the weight of the optical head, reducing the drive sensitivity.
- variable magnet optical head shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication 58-12145.
- a force acting on a portion of the focus coil facing the magnet and force acting on the other portions of the focusing coil act in opposite directions each other, resulting in mutual cancellation of the magnetic force. Consequently, the reaction force for the magnet is extremely weak and the drive sensitivity of the optical head is insufficient.
- the variable magnet system is known for its superlative vibration characteristics, it lacks practicability.
- the object of the invention is to provide a variable magnet type optical head apparatus, which is small, has low power consumption and high drive sensitivity, and can control the focusing and the tracking with great precision and good vibration characteristics.

- the part area of the focusing and tracking coils 44, 46 facing the magnets 36 is not more than half of the total area of the coils.
- Coil stud 48 and support member 42 connected to the leaf springs are mounted on base 50 to form a single unit.

- Coil unit 140 is fastened to the surfaces of coil plates 104a, 104b facing movable body 118.
- coil unit 140 comprises reinforcing plates 142a, 142b, which are made of a material such as glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP), flexible printed circuit board 144, which is made of a resin material such as a polyimide and is fastened to reinforcing plates 142a, 142b, tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b, which are oval shaped and fastened to flexible printed circuit board 144 such that their lengthwise directions are in the direction of the optical axis of objective lens 124, and focusing position adjustment coils 148a, 148b, which are oval shaped and fastened to tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b such that their lengthwise directions are in a direction intersecting the optical axis of objective lens 124, which is direction Y.
- GFRP glass fiber reinforced plastic
- tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b and focusing position adjustment coils 148a, 148b are arranged such that the long sides 146ax, 146bx, 148ax, 148bx face magnets 130a and 130b, respectively.
- the other long sides 146ay, 146by, 148ay, 148by do not face magnets 130a and 130b.
- Tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b and focusing position adjustment coils 148a, 148b are comprised of two serially connected coils 146aI, 146aII and 148bI, 148bII, respectively. All these coils are constructed using conductive wiring having rectangular cross sections. The long side of these cross sections of conductive wiring is in the same direction as the direction of magnetization of magnets 130a, 130b, which are in the X axis.
- Coil positioning holes 150a, 150b are provided in reinforcing plates 142a, 142b.
- the position of coil unit 140 on coil plates 104a, 104b is determined by coil positioning holes 150a, 150b and coil unit positioning hole 108, which is provided in coil plates 104a, 104b.
- movable body 118 is moved in direction Z of Fig. 11 by the electromagnetic force generated when current is supplied to focusing position adjustment coils 148a, 148b, to thereby effect the focusing control.
- Movable body 118 is rotated in direction Y of Fig. 11 by the electromagnetic force generated when current is supplied to tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b, to thereby effect the tracking control.
- This apparatus has the following advantages.
- the surfaces of magnets 130a, 130b, which face focusing coils 148a, 148b, are rectangular in shape so, by changing the side/length ratio, it is possible to distribute the desired driving force in the two intersecting directions.
- a highly efficient driving system can be designed and power consumption can be decreased.
- a larger driving force is required for the focusing direction than for the tracking direction. Consequently, in this invention it is possible to increase the driving force in the focusing direction by causing the long sides of magnets 130a, 130b to face the long sides of the focusing coils 148a, 148b that are nearest to magnets 130a, 130b in the 2-layer position adjustment coils.
- the surfaces of magnets 130a, 130b facing focusing coils 148a, 148b are convex. If shown as radius R in Fig. 9, the radius would in reality be 10-30 mm. If the surface is not curved in this way, the left and right edges of magnets 130a, 130b will strike focusing coils 148a, 148b, which are arranged with very small gaps, when movable body 118 to which the magnets are attached are rotated for tracking control, making it impossible to position magnets 130a, 130b close to focusing coils 148a, 148b or tracking coils 146a, 146b. However, in order to improve driving sensitivity, the closer the magnets are positioned to the coils the better.
- the gap between magnets 130a, 130b and focusing coils 148a, 148b is about 0.1 to 0.3 mm. Accordingly, by making the surfaces of magnets 130a, 130b facing focusing coils 148a, 148b convex, it is possible to decrease the size of the gap between magnets 130a, 130b and focusing coils 148a, 148b, making it possible to effectively utilize the strongest portion of the magnetic field in the magnetic space generated by magnets 130a, 130b, thereby improving the drive sensitivity.
- magnet positioning grooves 128a, 128b are provided in the side surfaces of movable body 118 and damper grooves 132a, 132b are provided at the bottom of magnet positioning grooves 128a, 128b.
- Damper member 134 is fitted into damper grooves 132a, 132b and the magnets are bonded into magnet positioning grooves 128a, 128b above them. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably attach damper member 134 to movable member 118 without bonding. Also, movable body 118 is made lighter and power consumption is reduced.
- Movable body 118 and bushing 120 are formed as one unit of a resin material having high rigidity, such as a polyimide or polyphenylen sulfide, so the production cost is low.
- a resin material having high rigidity such as a polyimide or polyphenylen sulfide
- the sliding characteristics of the bearing is increased according to a lubricating action of the resin material, so that application of lubricants such as a solid lubricant is unnecessary.
- Position adjustment coils 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b are formed of flat conduction wires which have a rectangular cross section. The long side of the cross section is in the direction of magnetization of magnets 130a, 130b, shown by X axis. This results in an increase in the space utilizable in direction X, improving the utilization efficiency of the magnetic field space generated by magnets 130a and 130b and increasing the drive sensitivity.
- Position adjustment coils 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b are substantially oval in shape and the long sides 146ax, 146bx, 148ax, 148bx face magnets 130a, 130b.
- the other long sides 146ay, 146by, 148ay, 148by do not face magnets 130a, 130b. Therefore, the magnetic flux direction of portions 146ax, 146bx, 148ax, 148bx of the position adjustment coils facing magnets 130a, 130b and the magnetic fiux direction of portions l46ay, 146by, 148ay, 148by of the position adjustment coils not facing magnets 130a, 130b are in opposite directions.
- the direction of current is opposite for the parts facing and the parts not facing magnets 130a, 130b. Consequently, the direction of force is the same for the parts facing and the parts not facing magnets 130a, 130b, resulting in a more effective force from position adjustment coils 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b and a reduction in power consumption.
- the lengthwise directions of position adjustment coils 146a, 148a or 146b, 148b are perpendicular to each other and are stacked into two layers, so one or the other of magnets 130a, 130b can apply an independent force toward two intersecting directions. Therefore, movable body 118 is lighter and more compact.
- Each layer of position adjustment coil 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b is constructed of coils 146aI and 146aII, 146bI and 146bII, 148aI and 148aII, 148bI and I48bII being serially connected into pairs.
- the coils being substantially rectangular or oval in shape together with the above-mentioned construction of the coils 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b mean that coils 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b can be arranged, in the symmetrical positional relationship in regards to magnets 130a, 130b, such that the current in the portion with opposing magnetic flux flows in the opposite direction.
- fluctuations in drive sensitivity do not depend on the direction of movement of movable body 118, resulting in a stable servo system.
- the lengthwise direction of focusing position adjustment coils 148a, 148b intersects optical axis of objective lens 124 and the coils are positioned nearer to the magnets than tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b.
- Position adjustment coils 148a, 148b which provide a force in the focusing direction, are arranged in a stronger field of the magnetic field space generated by magnets 130a, 130b than the field in which tracking position adjustment coils 146a, 146b are arranged. Accordingly, the force in the focusing direction must be stronger than the force in the tracking direction, resulting in an efficient well balanced optical head apparatus, which in turn makes it possible to reduce the power consumption.
- Position adjustment coils 146a, 146b, 148a, 148b are fastened to the top of non-conductive printed circuit board 144. Therefore, no induced electromotive force is generated, even if an alternating current is supplied. Futhermore, even in the high frequency region, it is possible to reduce the phase delay between the impressed voltage of the coil and the force acting on movable body 118, which is generated when position adjustment coils are directly fastened to a conductor such as aluminum, resulting in stable control.
- Coil positioning holes 150a, 150b are provided in flexible printed circuit board 144 so that it is easy to fasten coil unit 140 to the board accurately, thereby improving its mass productivity.
- the shape of magnets 130a, 130b is not limited to that described in the above embodiments.
- the side of magnet 130a, in its plan view, facing focusing coil 148a may be triangular or trapezoidal. In fact any shape is possible provided movable body 118 does not strike focusing coil 148a.
- damper grooves 132a, 132b may have a uniform width. Accordingly, the damper may have a uniform width as shown in Fig. 21. Damper grooves 132a, 132b may have a portion which is deeper than the rest. Accordingly, the damper may have a portion that is thicker than the rest.
- damper grooves 132a, 132b directly in the side surface of movable body 118 instead of providing magnet positioning grooves 128a, 128b in the side surface of movable body 118.
- magnets 130a and 130b are directly bonded to the side surface of movable body 118 after damper member 134 has been fitted into grooves 132a, 132b.
- Damper member 134 is able to carry out its function with only a portion of the member or with a combination of portions of the damper member as shown in Figs. 22 to 25. This allows the weight and power consumption to be further reduced, thereby improving the drive sensitivity.
- the shaft may be arranged on the movable body side and the bearing on the base side.
- the surface of the magnet facing the coil is convex, it is also possible to reduce the size of the gap between the magnet and the coil and to effectively utilize the magnetic field space generated by the magnets. Accordingly, it is possible to provide an optical head apparatus that has high drive sensitivity with low power consumption.
- the damper member engages with the damper groove provided in the movable member and the magnet is fastened over top by bonding. Accordingly, the attachment of the damper to the movable body is simplified and reliable. Also, the movable body is reduced in weight so power consumption can be reduced.
